Introducing Myself

    Hello! My name is Annie Coniam and welcome to my blog! As you can see by the title I play the cello, however, my foray into music started long before that. I played the violin for about three years before I decided on cello and I have dabbled in piano, ukulele and guitar. However, music is not my only passion. I love hiking, cooking, anything to do with animals, and martial arts.

    I want to try out and learn about all kinds of instruments from percussion to woodwinds. Music has been a major part of my life for so long and I want to explore everything it has to offer. From a young age I was listening to anything and everything from classical to classic rock. Now I enjoy classical music, rap, classic rock and on occasion country. I have been to a few concerts and I enjoy going to places with live music.

This is one of my favorite songs of all time!

    You have very eclectic tastes in music! I had to take cello lessons when I was in college as part of my preparation as a music teacher.

    Hi Annie, that is so cool that you play the cello! I play piano, but I've thought about learning another stringed instrument such as cello, violin, or guitar. I love that picture of the mountains!

Music and the Fictive Dream

 "I'll Make a Man Out of You" has been running laps around my head for weeks and I just can't get it to stop! It is one of my go-to work out songs and it always gets me excited to do whatever task I have at hand. This is the song in the movie sung by Li Shang, the commander of the group of soldiers Mulan is a part of, while he is training his troops for war. Of course, every movie with any kind of fighting has to have a training montage and this is up there with the best of them partly because of this song. Though mildly insulting to women, this song shows us the transformation of Mulan from a simple girl to a strong woman ready for battle and it is meant to empower not only her but her fellow soldier as well. Mulan also during the song has a line saying "Hope he doesn't see right through me" which is referring to her not wanting Li Shang to find out she is a woman. This song is the embodiment of hard work pays off no matter who you are. Just a little bi...

Society and Music and A Note from Me About My Class

T rigger Warning, some of the music in this blog will speak of depression and self harm, proceed with caution.      As cliche as it sounds, music plays an important role in society because it gives people an outlet for their emotions. Any person I have followed that writes music always says that they used their music to escape and talk about what they were dealing with.  Jack Kingslake, a Rythmix tutor, has worked with many young people and says that some of his students "have cited the Rhythmix session as the most effective therapeutic activities during their time at Chalkhill." because of the music. The artist Nf has a song called Therapy Session and in the song some of the lyrics are "Imagine someone looking at you and saying your music's the reason that they are alive" and in that song he also talks about how music is a therapy for him. Music is a connection for people but it also gives them a way to process and deal with their emotions. Therapy Session by N...
